Report: Aleister Black Undergoes Groin Surgery

Two episodes ago on NXT TV Tommaso Ciampa challenged Aleister Black for the NXT Championship. Following interference from Johnny Gargano, the bitter rivals Gargano and Ciampa engaged in a tug-of-war over the NXT Title belt which resulted in Gargano inadvertently hitting Aleister Black with the NXT Championship and in-turn handing over the NXT Title to the current champion Tommaso Ciampa.

In an update by way of Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet, Aleister Black has indeed undergone surgery on his groin stemming from the chop block delivered by Tommaso Ciampa at a Las Vegas NXT live event. As mentioned in the initial report above, TakeOver: Brooklyn IV is two weeks away and there is no current recovery time for "The Dutch Destroyer".
